Website as a Service · Retail & Ecommerce
“When someone in Falkirk searches for what you sell, do they find your shop, or a national chain?”
Independent shops in central Scotland are competing with Amazon and the big chains for every search. We build and manage websites and online shops that get you found locally and let customers buy from you any time, built for retailers, priced for small businesses.
From £90/month · Online shop from £120/month
Your shop, open 24/7. A professional website or full online store, found on Google, with nothing for you to manage.
The problem
Before customers visit a shop, they search. They check what you stock, your opening hours, and whether they can buy online or click and collect. If your shop isn’t on Google, or your website hasn’t been touched in years, they buy somewhere else, and you never knew they were looking.
Most independent retailers in central Scotland either have no website, a social media page doing the job of a website, or an online shop that was set up once and never looked after. Online marketplaces take a slice of every sale and give you none of the customer loyalty.
We fix that. We build a proper retail website or online shop, get you into Google’s local results for what you sell, and manage everything, from security updates to payments, so you can get on with running the shop.
built for retail and ecommerce
A WooCommerce shop with secure card payments through Stripe or PayPal. Customers can buy at 10pm on a Sunday, and the money is in your account.
Let local customers order online and pick up in store. It brings people through the door and keeps the sale with you, not a marketplace.
Each product and category page is written and set up to be found on Google, so people searching for what you sell find you, not just the big chains.
Your Google Business Profile set up properly, with opening hours, photos and directions, so "near me" searches bring people to your door.
Your monthly content time covers new products, seasonal offers and banners. Send us the details and we'll update the site.
Most shoppers browse on their phone. Your site is fast, mobile-friendly and easy to buy from on any device.
Local SEO for retail
Before we build your site, we agree five local keywords with you based on what people actually search for in your area — what you sell, your town, and your best-selling products. Those keywords go into your page titles, headings, and content from day one.
We also set up and optimise your Google Business Profile — the listing that appears in the map results at the top of Google. A properly set up profile is often the fastest way to start appearing in local search, and it’s included in every WaaS plan.

We agree your five keywords before we start. We don’t guess — we research what your customers actually type.

Every WaaS site is built specifically for the business. We look at what you sell, your area and your competitors before writing a line of copy or designing a page. The result is a site that looks and feels like your shop, not like every other template online.
